    I would rate a big fat 0 zero., much like the gal . This office is a waste of time. The…read morereceptionist did not follow through with the chart notes and referral for appointment. My little 90 blessed years , Mother who is having chronic kidney issues sat in their office early for an 1 hour and half. Turned away, I asked her why she could not have called to reschedule or call the referring pcp to receive notes. She looked me dead in the eyes and said I want to go home. You can come back tomorrow. I asked her for my mother's new patient paperwork and left. No way will I ever consider going back. I hope you get exactly what you gave. zero .

    "Kidney Care with Heart and Vibes!"…read more From my first call, Barbi at the front desk was an absolute pleasure--warm, funny, and full of good vibes. She and a team member with colorful hair had uplifting music (including country ) playing, and we bonded over our shared playlist more than once! I even joked that if I'm ever feeling down, I should just visit the office to boost my spirit. That's the kind of energy they bring. Dr. Qadri is the real deal--he helped bring my kidney numbers from 41 back into the 90s, and gave me a high five when I officially beat the kidney disease stage . His excitement and care were genuine and appreciated. Shoutout also to the kind young lady who took me to the back--we shared the same faith, and her positive energy and professionalism really stood out. That kind of connection and kindness goes a long way. At 45, I'm usually the youngest patient in the room, but the whole staff made me feel at ease. Professional, compassionate, and full of life--they don't just treat your kidneys; they lift your whole spirit. Thank you, Desert Kidney in Chandler! #DrQadri #BarbiRocks #UpliftingCare #FaithAndHealing #ChandlerHealthcare

    Mixed general experience! Dr Byrne, needs to slow down when…read morecaring for her patients. Always, rushing through the exam, and very little time to explain before, during and after procedure or exams. My husband was scheduled for an appointment that he never confirm or knew what the appointment was about it? He know that he will have a biopsy done on the 19th of the month and when he got the test alert about an appointment for next day at 10:45 am, he decided to check with the office about that appointment. Surprisely! The appointment was for the biopsy. He told tne MA that he was not prepare for the biopsy ( didn't stop his vitamins, supplements, medicines, took any antibiotics, nor even got the prescription filled or notified by the pharmacy of any antibiotics, enema, etc), she took the authority to tell him " NO problem, you can run to the pharmacy, start taking the antibiotics today grab an enema and get that done, you can come in morning for your biopsy "...he express his worries about not a good prep or decision and he didn't feel comfortable not having stopped any vitamins or supplements he has been taking. She keep encouraging him about having the biopsy. He finally got worry and told her, we will need to reschedule or speak to the doctor and she says " No problem, we can reschedule but you will be charged a $100 NO show as per our policy ". She was more worry about the $100 charge than listen to his worries, at that point, she never offer to have the doctor call him, sort things out, clarification of anything else just. " we are small practice and that is our policy ". As a Medical Assistant, she was out.of scope, making decisions for the doctor, in my opinion and she never tried to make sure my husband's concerns were answered. He called off the biopsy and told her to cancel! She just replied " Okay ", I told her to have the doctor give us a call to clarify things and make a decisions but we haven't heard from a busy Dr Byrne, yet. They are more concern of the $100 NO Show or cancelation because it was not done exactly 24 hrs ago prior to the appointment. ( my husband was three hours late for his phone cancelation). He had all the intention in having the biopsy but rushing the way the MA was coaching him, it was very scary. Sorry, we will be looking for another Urologist soon.

    Dr. Byrne has done a good job of helping me with my UTI's and ongoing infections, and that's the…read moremost important thing at the end of the day. But I do have a frustration: During the past few months I had an office visit and, just minutes after our 'visit' ended I wanted to ask a follow-up question (it is sometimes hard to think of everything during the office visit and, oftentimes a patient has a follow-up question that emerges as a direct result of the office visit). I asked a member of her staff to tell Dr. Byrne that I had a question and not only did she not come back to me to answer it, but when I saw her walking toward another room before I left the office she purposely ignored me. I get that there are 'permanent patients' who ask a string of non-stop questions, and the doctor's time is valuable. But, in my view, to be a top notch doctor there has to be some reasonable flexiblity in such situations, and it bothers me that I had to schedule another appointment just to answer what I considered to be a simple, quick follow-up question from the appointment.

    Dr. Pace's care does not "fit in the box" to me, this is a blessing and rarity. Those able to look…read morepast a small office that lacks corporate frills, they will be pleasantly surprised by Dr Pace's authenticity, uniqueness and brilliance. Specialists, like her will no longer exist one day. This will be a sad day. We need to support and appreciate providers like Pace who are less robotic and smart enough to keep a solo practice running. This allows Dr. Pace to thrive at problem solving and make obscure connections other providers may have missed.

    I moved to Arizona from Cleveland about 5 yrs ago with complex and serious medical issues. Due to…read morethis, I needed to find several docs (and fast !) for continuing my care (meds, labs etc.). After being told by some doctors that I wasn't curable and so they weren't interested or being told they didn't have time for my complex case in their busy practice, I found Dr Pace quite by accident ... but I like to believe she was an answer to my prayers. Dr Pace has a warm disarming manor that immediately puts you at ease. She laughs with her patients easily, demonstrating her joy and humanity, that's often a rarity in medicine. She treats her patients holistically ~ body, mind & spirit ~ understanding that health isn't only a collection of symptoms but what is going on in your life as well that impacts a patient's health. She asks what is going on with my other issues as well knowing that my other medical problems impact her discipline as well. When I came to AZ and couldn't find anywhere to get labs drawn from my port as an outpatient, Dr Pace found me an outpatient site close to home that I could use and I am forever grateful. She is not only my doctor, she is my confident and friend. She is backed up by a friendly staff who are very fine at following up on appointments and making sure you have done everything needed for your visit (labs etc.) as well as set up TELEMED appointments. All told, this practice functions as a wonderful team and I highly recommend.
